Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Showy canary-yellow flowers above blue-green ferny foliage over a long season make this vigorous, sun-tolerant, sterile-seeded selection one of the easiest and prettiest Corydalis to grow. S-PSh/M PPAF PVR
The soft blue-green feather-like foliage is accented by large, canary-yellow flowers carried in spikes above the foliage. This long bloomer makes a great highlight in shady spots. Combines well with blue or gold hosta. Use in the woodland garden under shrubs or in a part shade container.
Talk about flower-power! This, our showiest and most vigorous Corydalis introduced to date, is a blooming machine in foiled or unfoiled pots or in the garden. This hybrid is tolerant of partial sun and is a great highlight in shady spots where it combines well with our silver leaf Heuchera and Pulmonaria. This fantastic container plant blooms so long that early frosts can cut its life short, so some protection may be needed. Prefers moist, well-drained soils.
